Seeing Kawasaki Hiroshi raising his palm again, Kato Goro immediately told the story about the Manchu man.
"Asshole, how could you not report such an important situation?!" Hiroshi Kawasaki didn't use his hands this time and kicked Goro Kato directly in the stomach. After kicking Goro Kato, he took two steps back and fell to the ground.
"Hi!" Kato Goro got up and said respectfully.
"You can be sure that that man is from the military commander." Kawasaki Hiroshi said coldly.
"I'll arrest him right away!" Kato Goro said hurriedly.
"Do you know where he lives?" Kawasaki Hiroshi snorted coldly and asked.
"I don't know." Kato Goro was stunned and shook his head.
Although he had met twice, he didn't know the other person's situation, and he wasn't even sure whether he was a Manchu.
"You always know what the name is, right?" Terada Kiyozō suddenly asked.
"Wang Shiqian." Kato Goro knew this.
"You will still get off work as usual this afternoon. If he shows up again, arrest him immediately." Kawasaki Hiroshi said slowly.
"Hi." Kato Goro responded.
"This is an opportunity for you to get away with your crime and make meritorious service. If no one is caught, I don't need to explain the consequences, right?" Kawasaki Hiro said with a sullen face. He really wanted to send Kato Goro to a military court.
However, the current situation does not allow him to do this.
He has already reported Lei Xiaoyan's information to Kikuchi Kuan.
It was originally thought that the military commander might have contact with other military police units, or even members of the military police.
Unexpectedly, the military commander was eyeing Kato Goro.
If reported now, Kato Goro's mistake would become his dereliction of duty.
The best way is to take the opportunity to capture Wang Shiqian and never talk about the military commander's contact with the Japanese military police again.
"I will definitely behave well and catch Wang Shiqian with my own hands." Kato Goro said gratefully.
He originally thought that he might not be able to pass the test this time.
Unexpectedly, Kawasaki Hiroshi gave him a chance.
Lu Chengzhou has been paying close attention to Kato Goro's situation. Kawasaki Hiroshi should have received Lei Xiaoyan's telegram.
What surprised him was that Kato Goro was only called to Kawasaki Hiroshi's office, but was not arrested, let alone sent to the gendarmerie headquarters.
"Kato-kun, do you have time to have a drink together in the evening?" Lu Chengzhou asked with a smile as he "ran into" Kato Goro in the corridor.
"I don't have time at night." Kato Goro shook his head.
He also regretted it just now. It seems that pie in the sky will not fall into the sky. If he wants to drink, it is safer to go with Lu Chengzhou.
Although Lu Chengzhou is Chinese, he is very loyal to Japan.
Moreover, as the director of the First Intelligence Office, Lu Chengzhou had a lot of luck, so he didn't have to worry about anything happening if he drank from him.
"Got a mission?" Lu Chengzhou asked with his heart moving.
"Yes, there was a blind person recently who actually touched the muzzle of the gun." Kato Goro said with a smile, he almost hit the military commander.
Fortunately, Kawasaki Hiroshi had other intelligence sources and was the first to grasp this clue. Now bad things have turned into good things, and he can make meritorious deeds.
"The task is important, so I won't interrupt. Next time we have a chance, let's go have a drink." Lu Chengzhou said with a smile.
"Then it's settled, I like it there very much." Kato Goro successfully passed the test and was in a very happy mood.
As long as Wang Shiqian can be caught tonight, he can enjoy it for a while.
Seeing Kato Goro so excited, Lu Chengzhou knew that Kawasaki Hiroshi had no intention of dealing with Kato Goro for the time being.
Looking at Kato Goro's back, Lu Chengzhou had a smile on his face.
Originally, Lu Chengzhou was planning to go back after get off work, but he specially held a meeting to arrange the next stage of work.
By the time he left the gendarmerie unit, it was already half past eight in the evening.
"Everyone should be hungry. Let's go to the West Lake Hotel and I'll treat you all to a nice meal." Lu Chengzhou said when the meeting ended.
Neither Hiroshi Kawasaki nor Seizo Terada was allowed to participate in the operation at night.
Lu Chengzhou took the opportunity to gather the entire intelligence room together.
If something really happened, not only would he not be responsible, but the entire intelligence office would also be responsible.
In fact, after Haigu Station reported to Chongqing through Lei Xiaoyan, Lu Chengzhou's plan would have two possibilities.
If Kato Goro was arrested, he would naturally not leave the military police unit today.
If Goro Kato continues to appear in Tokyo Tavern, the situation will be complicated.
Either Kawasaki Hiroshi didn't notice anything unusual about Kato Goro, but this possibility is extremely low.
Kawasaki Hiroshi was an instructor at the police training center, and Lu Chengzhou was his student. If he had not been alert to this, he would not have served as the captain of the British Concession Military Police Squadron.
In other words, if Goro Kato is off duty normally, the most likely possibility is that the military police unit is preparing to use him as bait to induce Wang Shiqian to take the bait.
Kato Goro didn't know that when he left the military police unit, Wang Shiqian was staying on the second floor of a teahouse diagonally opposite.
Seeing Kato Goro suddenly coming out in a neat suit, he quickly turned his head.
Not long after Kato Goro left, several more people from the military police detachment came out. They were short and wearing suits.
Two of them were pushing bicycles, and two others called a rickshaw.
Instead, after they left, the gendarmerie detachment drove out another car and followed them slowly.
After waiting for a while and no one came out, Wang Shiqian left from another direction.
Almost all of the extra-high class were dispatched today, and it was obvious that Kato Goro was on a mission.
After Wang Shiqian returned, he quickly reported to Ma Shuyi.
He had met Kato Goro and naturally he could not show up again today.
"Do you know where Kato Goro lives?" Ma Yuzhen asked.
"I know, it's at No. 2 Zhonghou Lane, Edinburgh Road." Wang Shiqian said.
"Tonight, Kato Goro probably won't be back for a while. Let's go to his house to deliver a letter." Ma Yuzhen said slowly.
"Yes." Wang Shiqian responded.
As usual, Kato Goro went to Tokyo Tavern first. Just like last night, he first ordered a bottle of sake.
Last night, only half an hour after he arrived at the Tokyo Tavern, Wang Shiqian showed up.
With this financial backer, Kato Goro was able to spend as much as he wanted.
However, tonight, he had almost finished drinking the bottle of sake, and there was still no sign of Wang Shiqian.
The longer he waited, the more panicked Kato Goro became.
He originally thought that Wang Shiqian would appear soon.
As long as Wang Shiqian is caught, his difficulty will be over.
However, it has been an hour now and there is still no sign of Wang Shiqian appearing.
Kato Goro looked towards the door of the tavern from time to time, hoping to see Wang Shiqian soon. To a certain extent, Wang Shiqian was now his savior.
However, the more he hoped to see Wang Shiqian, the more he couldn't see him.
